Hi all,
I am the software engineer at one private firm in INDIA. I know English very well. I was good in communication too. But now a days I m feeling I can�t speak English good with my Colleagues. When I speak with myself , I too feel I m still good in English but when I m going to speak with others I get hesitated and I can�t deliver good English. Can U plz tell me any way of get read from this problem? I m too frustrated bcoz of this plz tell me any way. One more thing I want to mention here no bodies know the English at my home except me otherwise I could have solve this problem by conversing with my family member and I also don�t want to tell this problem to my Colleagues bcoz I know them very well they would take it wrong way which affect my position in office. Plz do needful for me ASAP.
Waiting for reply�.and good solution

My name is Edwin, I'm an English teacher in Colombia. I read ur message and I remember somthing that happened to me and the solution I found. I stopped teaching for a long time (9 months) and during that time never did I use English for anything. Whrn I went back to teaching, my level was very poor and I couln't speak very well. Then I started practicing with songs. Not whatever song, very difficult songs, like Eminem, 2unlimited, Michael Jackson, and others. That helped a lot, at least to recover fluency. Now, about ur problem of getting stock, it's up to u be brave and get the trust that u need from urself. That's all I can tell u. Write back and tell me if it worked or not. [/b]

Hi Ranjana, your email touched me. I am an ESL teacher (part time) in Canada. Would you like to practice english through email correspondence? I would like to see your confidence build up. Why don't you tell me a little more about yourself. You must be very smart to be an engineer!
